This is the perfect stamp set for making my little grandson a birthday card. He is so into pirates. For his third birthday I made him a treasure chest and put some maps/treasures inside. I am using a piece cut off one of the canvas-type maps on this card which he will receive for his next birthday. The flag pole is part of a pirate ship die cut and I stamped the trunk again and cut out the skull to place on the flag. The canvas fabric for the sentiment came from Hobby Lobby. I've distressed around the image by curling/tearing some of the paper and inking with Distress Inks. The only coloring was the compass rose.

About Me

I'm a Southern girl residing in Alabama. Being a Christian girl, I rely on my faith each second of every day.
I started creating cards about four years ago and it has kind of taken over my life. My other favorite hobby was needlepointing and I haven't done that since I made my first card. What an addiction! I have a wonderful and supportive husband so my life is happy.
Hope you'll enjoy my cards and if you're not already involved in this hobby, maybe you'll be inclined to give it a try.
